Thousand Yard Stare

I'm afraid of every single person I've ever loved
I'm afraid of each and every person who's ever loved me
Gotta remind myself that god's inside me, not above me
I'm afraid of the earth, I'm afraid of the sun
I'm afraid of having too much fun
Staring down the wrong end of this gun
A new part of the end has just begun

If it seems I don't care
Forgive my thousand yard stare
I keep my back against the wall
Pinned down by drugs and alcohol

I achieved all my dreams at 23 (misery, agony)
(you and me keep killing me)
I've had a real hard time thinking up some new ones
(jealousy, honesty)
(honestly, it's gotta be)

Ascent to the middle class seems like a chore
Safety feels impossible to score
I just don't see the point anymore
I only ever know peace when I snore

If it seems I don't care
Forgive my thousand yard stare
I keep my back against the wall
Pinned down by drugs and alcohol

If it seems I don't care
Forgive my thousand yard stare
I keep my back against the wall
Pinned down by drugs and alcohol

If it seems I don't care
(misery, agony you and me keep killing me)
Forgive my thousand yard stare
(jealousy, honesty, honestly, it's gotta be)
I keep my back against the wall
(misery, agony you and me keep killing me)
Pinned down by drugs and alcohol
(jealousy, honesty, honestly, it's gotta be)
